Trip to the ER

What does one girl

+

one bed

+

one fall

=?

one broken collar bone!


Kate fell off her bed last night and broke her left collar bone.

The bad news-

  • they can’t put a cast on it so she gets to wear this beautiful sling for the next month or so.
  • She was signed up to start gymnastics in two weeks

The good news-

  • she is young enough that she should heal on her own and not need surgery

That is so sad, not only for Kate but you too! I am so sorry, I hate injuries in children. While I was watching the Relief Society Broadcast there was a 5 mo. old boy in the row in front of us who had a hip to toes hard cast. It was awful. At least she got to watch tv. :-(

Poor Kate. Hopefully she is adjusting to that sling and letting her collar bone heal.

The EXACT same thing happened to me when I was 7. Only I wasn't half as cute in the hospital as Kate.
